12 'Hey! Don't go...'

Nana was sulking inwardly while walking along the corridors. Suddenly she came before Luo Lixi's room. She opened the room stealthily and looked around inside. Luo Lixi was alone there, in a deep sleep in her own world. 

"Heh! What a loser!" she whispered while mocking her and walked towards her arrogantly. She was very jealous of this sleeping woman. 

'Lucky bitch!' She thought with envy.

Luo Lixi got everything that she couldn't have. It pissed her off. 

'Both of us are nearly the same so why can't the Young Master like me a bit?!' Her delusional mind wondered.

When her sight fell on her hand, she immediately went up to her and snatched the bracelet harshly. Luo Lixi's wrist became slightly red due to it.

Nana began to touch the bracelet and put it on her hand. "Wow, it looks very beautiful." she giggled like a fool as she looked down on her hand. 

"It is such a waste in your hand. Let me have it for some time." She peeked at Luo Lixi and upon watching her motionless, she became bold.

She began to walk around the room and touched things randomly. There were some files on Sheng Ruming's desk. She picked them up and caressed Sheng Ruming's handwriting. 

"Wah! His handwriting is so beautiful. You say, if I can become his girlfriend won't it be for the best. Hihi!" she was laughing nonstop like a maniac but abruptly stopped.

"But he doesn't like me. He even insulted me two times! I am very sad." She shot Luo Lixi a sharp look as if she wanted to stab her to death. Suddenly a bad idea crossed her mind.

"Wait, he went to the company. He will be back by night at the least. Why don't I..." She murmured.

Nana wore a cheeky smile as she bent down to face her. "Your skin is so soft. It's like tofu but... I don't like it at all." she was caressing her cheek vigorously and suddenly pinched her very hard.

"Does it hurt? Why don't you wake up and tell me?" Nana patted her cheek heavily and was going to stand straight when she saw two clear black eyes staring at her straight. 

Her body stiffened in horror. 

They looked into each other's eyes for a long time. She couldn't even move as if her soul had left her body as she realised what had happened. 

Luo Lixi had gained consciousness and it was at the worst time. 

Nana immediately took off the bracelet from her hand and wrapped it around Luo Lixi's hand shakingly. Then, she literally just fled from there.

... 

'Where am I? What is this place? Luo Lixi was floating above an ocean. She was going from this side to that side but couldn't find a ground. 

'Water, I am so thirsty...' She wanted to touch the water in the ocean but it leaked from her hands.

'Grandpa, I am very alone here. Where are you all?' She shouted hysterically but she couldn't do anything except it as the whole space only echoed her words and nothing else.

Suddenly she felt pain and her consciousness was dragged from there. Light peeked in her eyes but due to sensitivity towards light, she couldn't immediately open her eyes. 

After some time she was successful and saw the pale faced unfamiliar woman who was saying something to her.

[...don't you wake up and tell me?] She heard a person saying something.

'Who is she?' Her eyes fixed on the pair of lips that were moving in front of her. 

Then she noticed it was a maid. She felt pain in her hand and on her face but did not mention it. She only stared in that person's eyes. It was very pleasing to see a human after so long.

She was trying to move her lips when that woman ran away abruptly.

'Hey! Don't go...' She shouted in her mind.

'Give me water before you leave! I am thirsty...' she tried to move her hands and felt a sudden stiffness in her whole body.

'Why is my face hurting so badly?' She raised her hand to touch her face. But her sight fell at her hand and there was a light pain. When she looked at it, there was a beautiful bracelet on it. 

'It's pretty...' She didn't finish her thoughts when her sight landed on the cut mark. 

She touched it slightly and lost in thoughts, 'Wait. It wasn't a dream'

Her thoughts began to clear up. She remembered when he wanted to throw her in the river and they were afraid she would survive. She struggled desperately to run away but he caught her and dragged her there.

That's why he cut her veins with a sharp knife so that she would be weak and couldn't run away again or swim. She was in so much pain back then that it couldn't be described in words.

'Just why did you do this to me? What is the reason?!' Luo Lixi was very confused and pondered silently. Without knowing, tears were flowing down her cheeks. 

There was dull pain in her heart, she felt suffocated.

'Grandfather...' When she thought of the old man who wanted to give her a surprise on her birthday, her head began to ache and as time went by, it intensified. She raised her hand to rub her aching forehead when a person broke in the room.

Sheng Ruming didn't allow the doctors to put sensors in her fingers. He thought she would be awake according to the doctors but she didn't. That's why when she woke up they didn't get notified.

The nurse came to the room, as usual, to change her I.V. drip when she saw this scene. She exclaimed as she unconsciously blurted out.

"Miss, you're awake?! Oh my God!" She went beside Luo Lixi directly. 

"How are you feeling? Can you say something?" The nurse noticed her wet eyes but didn't mention it. Sometimes people became very emotional when they woke up from a coma.

"Wa...ter. I want to..." Her voice was hoarse as she didn't use her vocal cord for a long time.

"I will bring a doctor. Do not sleep. Try to remain awake." She said and ran away to bring a doctor.

Sheng Ruming brought a doctor from the hospital for two days in case she woke up and needed an immediate check-up but she didn't. 

Now, that doctor finally could fulfil his task and return to the Ailin hospital. He was a doctor who was supposed to work there but ended up waiting for a single patient. 

It was really irritating for him to do nothing all day but to wait for someone to wake up. He wanted to return to the hospital but director Xiao didn't allow it.
